Planting Out Ranunculus: It’s Time! ⏰ 

Hi Friends!
It is time for me to plant out my Ranunculus here in my zone 6b. I soaked the corms for a couple of hours ( changing the water every hour). Next, I put them in a water tight potting tray with about an inch of moistened potting soil on the bottom and about two inches of moistened potting soil over them. Then, it was time for them to be in a cool, dark place for about 10 to 14 days so that they could wake up and sprout! I placed mine in my office closet which stays around 65 degrees F and I checked them every day for any signs of mold. After they sprouted, I potted them up and placed them under the grow lights for a couple of days and then I moved them into the greenhouse so they could begin to get acclimated to the outside temperatures.
These will bloom for me from late spring into early summer. Ranunculus do not like the heat of summer so they will begin to die back after blooming. The corms can then be dug and stored for the next year.
